I have no where to install a new OS. I was trying to reset the computer, and it seems I’ve deleted too much. I tried option at start up, even tried downloading from USB . But the issue is I don’t have a internal hard drive disk to save anything to. How can I restore or replace the missing hard drive.
iMac Pro
Crissykam12! I did it!! If you have an internal hard drive still listed in your disk utility, then you have to click on it and erase it. (Mine was the apple HDD one in this pic.It’ll ask you to rename it, so rename it and this will be your new drive to put the operating system in. After you erase it and give it a new name, go back to the recovery, then click on download Mac OS. It then gave me the new drive to click on to put it in. After 3 hours, my computer is up and running again. Good luck!!

Hello,
Please refer to the following Apple Support document.
How to reinstall macOS from macOS Recovery - Apple Support
try this
I did the same thing, and the above does not help. I can get the recovery up, but when I try to "reinstall os", there is not a file there to choose from to put it. HELLLPPP!!
Doesn’t work. I believe I deleted my internal hard drive. I have one hard drive left and I believe it came with the computer , doesn’t allow me to save the downloaded OS to it
Deleted Macintosh HD, untitled HD.
